In this series I cover key features of backpacking boot construction to help you in your purchase decision. I may have left some things out but I cover the important parts. I don’t review specific boots and probably won’t ever: models change frequently and it’s just logistically impossible for me now. Using the info I provide here just give a good basis for getting the right heavy duty hiking boot.
** Please do not PM me with questions about specific boot models and what would be good for you. I apologize but I just don’t have the time to research it for you.

You can re-stitch a boot, and you can also re-glue a boot as well, but IMO it is better to take it to a cobbler and have them do it, than to do it yourself, as they have much better tools and materials to do it with.

I’ve had some problems with Vibram soles, where two different rubbers in the sole that were glued came a part. That was on my Merell Overdrives, but I think that was a defect as it happened pretty quickly so I got them replaced for free and the second pair weren’t as bad, but still not perfect.
